I like my trash bag hook. I wouldn't buy a truck without one.

Drivers side glovebox is not available if you have the manual transfercase.

GregsSD,
Are you refering to the coin tray? or were the Optional upfitters go?

No, the drivers side glovebox is a small glovebox just below the coin tray.
It was added as an option in 2005.

Here you can see it just below my upfitter switches:

I adjusted the pedals when I bought the truck and there they've sat. I stopped growing a long time ago so I don't anticipate moving them again.

I use my hook to hang a box of tissue on, it's actually kind of handy.
Gotta love Ford interior design folks. Why not have the glove box w/manual T-case? How often would I have it in 4-wheel low and have to get in there?

Best idea I've heard yet for the 'hook', Greg! I've seen a thread or two locked discussing what could be hung there....

As long as we are discussing weird designs and all...how about the cup holders in the console in the Excursions! They make great loose change holders! We use our hook to hang a small trash bag on. No trash in the Excursion!

Yeah, my favorite is the panty hook (talked about in some older posts also). But I actually use mine for a small trash bag. If you get the right kind it works perfect.

This hook gets more forum space than ESOF hub problems I think.

I know!!!

Whenever the "Hook" topic comes up it is like the Energizer Bunny!

It keeps going, and going, and going, and going, and going, and going, and going I guess we all have this in common!
